Oh my goodness. This place is just heavenly and perfect in every way. Came here for my sister's birthday lunch. Prior to coming here, I watched their feature on Check Please Bay Area to see what was in store for us. Service was 10/10. So accommodating (wheelchair accessibility, a major plus) and extremely kind. It was so nicely decorated inside, loved the home-y feel. We first ordered the Takoyaki to start and it was delicious. Loved the textural difference between the crispy exterior and the octopus filling. I also ordered this Berry Yakult drink which was refreshing and the right touch of sweetness. We went family style and shared between three pasta dishes. Salmon Shimeji Mushroom Risotto was my favorite. Risotto was cooked how it should be and the addition of the salmon was the cherry on top. It helped with the heaviness of the dish. Wagyu Meat Sauce Pasta: Classic Spaghetti with meat sauce dish. Loved the chunks of tomato. Really enjoyed this, especially because the other two pastas we ordered had a cream sauce. Mentaiko Cream Tagliatelle: WOW. This was just out of this world incredible. The cod roe with dashi along with the creamy sauce & al dente noodles = a delightful combination I can't even describe in writing. Overall, had such a wonderful experience. 11/10, cannot wait to come back! read more

Dropped by last night for dinner - they're not currently open for lunch service, and it was super popular! I waited about 40 min for a party of two when I arrived just past 7pm, so definitely recommend making a reservation if possible. There's not a ton of staff (just two waiters taking orders, seating parties, running food, and bussing tables), so please be patient and kind :) The food: Pork cutlet wagyu spaghetti - the sauce is super meaty and tomato forward - I don't know that I can discern that the beef is wagyu, but it's quite delicious. The pork cutlet is fried very well, and tastes light and juicy, with a nice thin breading. Seafood pescatore - the sauce tastes heavily of seafood (in a good way) - I don't think the white wine notes come through compared to the shrimpyness of the broth, so maybe next time I'd try the red sauce version. All the seafood itself was cooked very well, no rubberiness, and tasted fresh. We didn't try any apps, drinks, or desserts this time, but the takoyaki ordered by the table next to us smelled delicious! Their patisserie desserts are made by Ikuka, so I'm glad to have the opportunity to try their desserts without driving out to Los Gatos. Will be back with a bigger group next time to try more things! read more

Nice little spot with a decent menu. My first time trying Mentaiko cream spaghetti and it was good. I don't know any other spots in the area that serve this dish in particular so if you happen to be craving mentaiko spaghetti give them a shot. Service was good and we were lucky to get it in before the dinner rush on a Friday. We opted not to try the dessert but the mont blanc does look good and maybe something worth trying next time. They do get busy and the parking lot is shared in the plaza. read more

My original review you see below was for Obaitori Ramen, which got rebranded into a MUCH WORSE ramen place, and then turned into a La Casa Mia... which is actually a pretty good restaurant. But shame on the ownership for just not making a new page. This is bait and switch. They deserve 1 star for doing this, but I'll include another star because I actually like La Casa Mia. read more

The carbonara was so delicious and creamy! The pizza had a little more corn than I would have liked but was still really good. Drinks were so cute and delicious! Service was a little slow but you could tell the one server they had was working so hard and was so nice. Would definitely come back. read more

I called around 6:30pm yesterday and they said it would be about a 10-min wait for a table of 4. When we got to the restaurant, it was busy but we were seated very quickly. All the servers were really nice to us!! The atmosphere was really cozy and aesthetic. I got the spicy arrabiata pasta and loved it so much. It's only a little spicy (6.5/10 level) if you can tolerate sriracha you can definitely enjoy this LOL. My friends got the sukiyaki pasta, mentaiko cream pasta, and kid's plate. I only had one bite of each but I will say the sukiyaki was sweet and had a light flavor. The mentaiko was really good and I would get it next time to try. It didn't have any other toppings though, like meats or veggies. The kid's plate was SO stinking CUTE. It came with your choice of pasta, smiley face tots, mozzarella sticks, potato salad, a jelly, and yakult served on a house-shaped plate. Perfect for kids or someone with a small appetite. Lastly we got the Takoyaki to share. It had great texture and was super yummy. Not pictured but we also tried the strawberry calpico soju cocktail. It was very fruity and not too strong!! If you just want a cute little drink with only a slight alcohol flavor, you should definitely try it out. Will definitely be coming back. read more

Went here when they opened on Valentine's Day and got seated right away despite having no reservation. It was my bf and I's first time eating here and I'm glad we tried it out! Here's everything we had: Strawberry Calpico Soju: 10/10: The drink was super cute and tasted yummy! I liked the strawberry chunks they left in the drink. There was a good balance of alcohol and the juice. Carbonara Pasta: 9/10: Super creamy and delicious! Had a lot of bacon bits. Also didn't feel too heavy. Size proportion was good too. Mentaiko Mayo Mochi Cheese Pizza: 7.8/10: The taste was good. I honestly think it wasn't too special but still decent. Also comes in one size 14". Mentaiko Cream Spaghetti: 8/10: Good taste and very creamy. The roe added a fun crunch and texture. It wasn't fishy either which I liked. Size proportion was good. Overall: The space wasn't too big as some tables felt a little too close (if you're sitting on the booth). However, despite the spacing, the vibe overall is cute, cozy, and the decorations were nice. Price point was reasonable with justifiable food. The customer service was very good as well. read more

I didn't know they remodeled and changed owners. The space is super cute and airy- reminds me of high tea time. Food - I got the Mentaiko cream pasta. It hit the spot for me- not too fishy, great cream! Other person got the premium pork cutlet with Wagyu sauce- it looked so good! They said they enjoyed! The drinks were super cute and tasty for some sugar bombs hehe. Service - attentive and nice Single occupant bathroom all the way in the back.

I've had La Casa Mia in Santa Clara on my "need to try" list for a while now. When we finally tried to make a reservation, my partner happened to get one at this location and we were surprised to find out it was actually on their grand opening! Being the first day of service, there were definitely some hiccups. Service was friendly and attentive, but a little bit slow and there was quite a bit of confusion as well (TOTALLY understandable at this time). There were also only two girls working the floor. Food came out pretty quickly though which was great! We ordered the baguette slices (with free refills), takoyaki, salmon carpaccio salad, spicy carbonara, salmon shimeji mushroom risotto, uni pasta, and wagyu meat sauce pasta with tonkotsu. My favorite dish was hands down the risotto, which was perfectly flavored and not too heavy despite being a cream-based dished. Everything else was good but did not wow me (note that I did not try the carbonara). We also ordered some drinks including the lychee jpop (canned) and strawberry calpico soju. Both were yummy but the calpico drink was a little too sweet for me. Overall a 3.5/5 for the food for me, but rounding up to 4. I was disappointed they didn't have any pizzas on the menu here, but maybe that's to come. I would come back to try more items in the future! read more

This place is definitely overpriced on some dishes. Small portions for high prices.

This is probably my last time at this place. Sorry to say! read more

The food was mehhh. Not really have any flavor to the food. The seafood pasta was not great; lacks flavor like garlic, onion, cheese in the cooking and wine flavor in the sauce. pasta was hard. Salad and dressing was a dud. No real flavor. Salad is something from Costco's salad bag and same with the vinaigrette. Feel like you're in a kids' eatery with strange decorations. The place is run by kids/ young adults. They forgot a few things we asked. Expensive for small portions and again no flavor to the foods Overall rating 2.5 stars. read more

Family style Japanese-Italian restaurant; they make all the pasta & pizza from scratch, you can smell the yeast dough on your cloth afterwards:-) The baguette is good, simply good bread.

TL;DR: this is an Instagram driven spot with cute decor, ok food and very friendly service This plaza is really gaining new tenants and opening lots of new spots. I'd read about this restaurant in Santa Clara so I wanted to try it out without having to get in line. They have really short hours since they close for lunch at 130pm which is... Strange. But they still seated us a little after 1pm and were very friendly and flexible about making sure our entire party could be accommodated. The decor was... Instagram ready. Very cute, garden, cottage vibes? The customer base seemed to line up with this - many groups of girls all dressed up, people on dates, etc. There was definitely room for improvement though - at one point I almost walked into one of the lights because it was hanging so low and the table wasn't positioned properly underneath it. The lunch menu was pretty tiny and we basically ordered all the mains on the menu. The food was ok overall, tasted as expected but did not blow my mind like many of the reviews seemed to suggest. I enjoyed the Japanese Italian flavors, and was curious about the "fresh pasta". Turns out fresh pasta really means ramen so that was an interesting twist of events. Salmon Shimeji mushroom risotto: I enjoyed the dashi flavor that came through in the rice but didn't think the salmon and mushroom were incorporated that well. Bacon peperoncino spaghetti: this tasted like every component listed in the menu (bacon, chili oil, onion, bouillon and black pepper) and I thought that they might have tried to go the Napolitan route instead Mentaiko Cream spaghetti: I love mentaiko pasta! This was delicious and tasted like I expected Salmon shimeji spaghetti: very similar to the risotto but I think the use of the dashi in the risotto made that stand out more Lunch soup & salad: kind of disappointing and very tiny, the soup was a very standard chicken bouillon with some vegetables, and the salad was served in a very cute mug but was tiny! There were probably 3 leaves in there with dressing and other summer produce on top. I hadn't checked ahead of time and I probably should have, but they do have different menus at lunch and dinner. I don't see the ramen referenced on the Yelp page anymore so perhaps the menu has changed. If you're looking for a cute girls brunch spot, this might be one for you. However, if you're looking for delicious Japanese Italian food, it wouldn't be my first choice. read more

I've been here four times now. The food is good. I like trying something different every time. Can't go wrong with any of the apps or pastas. - Upon my last time earlier this month, two of the serving employees were chit chatting about drama super loudly - the patrons could hear for over an hour. Very unprofessional. No one needs to hear petty toxic problems. They were so distracted, service was extra slow and meh because of that. It's very jarring. Are they not aware that they represent and are front-facing (the front) of the restaurant. One of the younger, but the older servicer should know better. Life happens but can't relate to being not composed or handling it more discreetly. But, there was a nice lady with short hair not mixed in all of this who was very friendly who made the experience a bit better. But it was just a kill that day. I might try the Santa Clara location instead next. read more

The ambiance was so cute. You walk in and you immediately feel welcome. The staff are super nice and are attentive. For appetizers we got the bruschetta with whipped bacon butter and you can get up to three refills for only $6. The butter was so fresh and delicious. We also go the truffle fries which could have been a little crispier but were still yummy. For entree's we got the salmon shimeji spaghetti, the spicy arrabbiata spaghetti, and the mentaiko pizza. All three entrees were good. I think we could have skipped the arrabbiata as it was nothing too special but the other two entrees were worth ordering. Last but not least we had a chocolate mousse and you can't go wrong with a chocolate mousse. Will definitely be back! read more

A hidden little find. Unique food seemingly combining japanese and Italian cooking. Food is amazingly delicious and a true gem. We got an order of the Mentako Cream pasta and the Sukiyaki pasta. Both were very unique and so good. We argued after which was better, and eventually agreed to disagree. Drinks are super tasty, too. If you like japanese food and Italian food give la casa mia a try. And if you go, try the baguette slices with the smoked butter because it was a totally unexpected surprise and super tasty. Totally recommend. The staff was also super polite and gave fantastic service. read more

I got the bacon peperoncino, very tasty and light, al dente pasta, would get it again, corn pizza was tasty but I preferred my pasta. Kids meal was cool, kiddo got the carbonara and the sides were generous with tater tots, potato salad, mozzarella stick, help and Yakult drink on a cute plate. Cajun fries weren't crispy but the seasoning was good and I enjoyed the gochujang dip. DW really liked the seafood pasta. Price is reasonable, service was super friendly. Cute place, definitely would come back for the bacon peperoncino. read more

My friend wanted to try La Casa Mia so we gave it a try today. She arrived a little earlier than I did, just around 12PM and was able to snag a table for two. If you want to be guaranteed a spot, make sure to make a reservation through their website beforehand. By the time I got there, around 12:20PM, the place was popping. I didn't get a good look around the restaurant, but it's got a cute, floral vibe to it. It looks like it's more catered to small parties than big ones, so there might be more of a wait. La Casa Mia is located inside a big plaza with many other restaurants and it's quite unassuming. Their signage isn't super large. I almost thought that based off of Google Maps it was located in the back. But that's totally wrong - It's right next to Taiwan Porridge, in case you're puzzled. My friend ordered the Vegan Vegetable Pomodoro and I opted for the Salmon Shimeji Spaghetti. My Salmon Shimeji Spaghetti comes with Salmon, Shimeji Mushroom, butter, some micro greens, and flying fish roe. I asked for less butter on mine because I was afraid of too much butter drenching my pasta. I also ended up getting a Kimino Juice, Yuzu flavor. Drinks and food came fairly quickly. Service was friendly as well. Drinks came first. My Yuzu Kimino Juice was really refreshing and nicely flavored. Not too sweet! Perfect for a hot day. My Salmon Shimeji Spaghetti was okay. I understand that the butter was meant to make the spaghetti delicious and the Shimeji fragrant, and it was indeed very fragrant, but I think the butter made it pretty heavy and rich. So that made it less enjoyable for me. They gave a decent amount of salmon pieces. Plenty of microgreens for garish, and sprinkles of flying fish roe here and there. I do wish they mixed in a tad more mushrooms. The spaghetti was nice and al dente. Other than that, I feel like the spaghetti was alright. A bit innovative, but not particularly special either. I may have just ordered the wrong menu item. My friend enjoyed her Vegan Vegetable Pomodoro, so if I come back, I'd probably opt to get that next time. read more

Went there at lunch time. Was there for the uni pasta but it's only on the dinner menu. We got a Carbonara, Mentaiko Cream Spaghetti, and a Tokyo Style Takoyaki. Both of the spaghetti tastes good and the cream for both of them was so rich but not greasy. The takoyaki was just like the other takoyaki at the other restaurant but served on spoons, nothing really special. Customer service was okay, and the decorations at the restaurant are so warm and sweet. Need to come back for their dinner menu next time! read more

I'll be honest, I've never even heard of Japanese Italian Fusion before This place exceeded my expectations though. It was weird how the flavors actually worked. Imagine a good Italian pasta sauce, but with hand-pulled Japanese noodles. The texture of the noodles were fresh and just the right amount of chewiness. I also learned that this place is the sister restaurant of Orenchi Ramen, which explains why the noodles were so good. Definitely bookmark this place and give it a try! * Hand-cut French Fries with Truffle Oil * Honey Mustard Fried Chicken * Wagyu Meat Sauce Pasta with Premium Pork Cutlet * Seafood Pescatore (Rosso) read more

Salmon risotto 4/5 - this was really tasty and not as liquidy as I thought it would be. It was very creamy and the salmon bits were really good. This dish didn't feel too rich like the mentaiko pasta so if you're not sharing plates, this is a good option Mentaiko spaghetti 4/5 - this was also really good but a lot more rich and because of the fish eggs it was pretty salty. This plate is definitely a shared plate or else it gets a little too much. My friend and I shared this and we talked a lot so when the pasta got cold, it wasn't as good anymore. Best to eat this while it's still warm We made a reservation but there was still a couple open tables. They don't have a banner yet so it was hard to find the restaurant and I was circling around the plaza trying to find it. read more

By far one of the most delicious Japanese Italian Fusion restaurant I've had. I came here with a couple friends to capture all our first reaction. We shared both the Seafood Pescatore - Bianco (white wine sauce) and Rosso (Tomato Sauce), Meat Sauce with Pork Cutlet, and Uni Pasta. The pasta was al dente, the pork cutlet was juicy and the Uni was fresh as well. My favorite out of the 4 pasta was Uni. It was creamy base, the uni was fresh and the udon was cooked to perfection. The staff were friendly and the restaurant was busy, they were attentive to everyone. The interior is very cutesy and instagram friendly. Parking is easy as it is in plaza with many other restaurant. I would come back to this place to try their pizza, which looks amazing and the portion looks huge from the tables we passed by. read more

Such a cute little date spot! The Japanese-Italian fusion dishes are all so unique and yummy. I would recommend getting a reservation, since it's not a very large restaurant. The aesthetic is very cottage core and cute. The drinks are cute too, we got the berry yogurt and matcha. The berry yogurt is sweet and slightly tart. The little heart-shaped dropper is too small to actually have an effect on the flavor, but it's cute! The matcha can probably be skipped - it just tastes like a matcha you can get at a grocery store. We started with the takoyaki, which is a good standard takoyaki, very soft, but not especially large pieces of octopus. For the entree, I got the mentaiko pasta. I love mentaiko, and this has a strong mentaiko flavor, which I liked, but i can see some considering it to be too fishy. My fiance got the bacon spaghetti, which had a thin soup base with a slight ramen flavor. It's a nice, lighter option! I've also been to their Santa Clara location and enjoyed the fusion pizzas, which is only on the dinner menu. If you like pizza/pasta and Japanese flavors, definitely give this place a try! read more

This place moved to this location relatively recently to my understanding. The venue is decorated in a very cute and quaint way that is very reminiscent of Japanese Italian places. Their set menu is also very Japanese style. We got two lunch set menus, one with mentaiko pasta and the other carbonara. The lunch set is a small consommé, salad, pizza and pasta. The consommé was warm and comforting, salad is pretty standard but nice to have some veggies. The pizza is nothing special. The pasta was really what I came for and I was a bit disappointed in my carbonara just because all the meat bits used were basically fat pieces which I don't enjoy chewing/eating. I tried my husbands mentaiko pasta and it was delicious and had a very nostalgic taste for me. It's a warm, seafood taste. I've actually never tried mentaiko before but now that I have I will definitely order it more at other places. The lunch set is nice from a price point to try but if you know what you like it might be worth just ordering that instead. I'd be willing to come back and give this place another try but my husband less so for the atmosphere. read more

We have been to the Santa Clara shop multiple times and love it so wanted to try this one too! The shop is bery cute and the staff is all super friendly. It's tucked away in the corner though, so you might walk past it but it's worth going in! We knew going into it, that they didn't have the pizza, which we were really sad about! It is one of our favorites at the Santa Clara shop so hopefully they will get pizza soon also. With that said, here's what we got: -Honey, mustard, fried chicken (karaage style) - SO GOOD and with salad underneath too! Next time though, I'd ask for the honey mustard on the side because there was a lot of it and I'm an only a little dressing person. HUGE juicy pieces of chicken! -Kids plate with meat sauce spaghetti -Mentaiko cream spaghetti - so good! Creamy, a little spicy, salty, and DELICIOUS -Salmon shimeji spaghetti - think yummy sukiyaki esque pasta with little salmon pieces and shimeji mushrooms For dessert we tried: -Kabocha cheesecake - my FAV you have to try if you like kabocha! -Strawberry shortcake - this was the kid fav, it didn't stand out to me -Chocolate banana tart - if you like fudge and banana try this! Sadly, we wanted to try other desserts made by Ikuka but they were out of the ones that we wanted like the matcha tiramisu. The kids menu also said broccoli so I thought it would have a little more veggies but sadly it did not come with additional veggies and my little didn't really like the potato salad.

I was looking for Obaitori Ramen, but when I found that they had changed to La Casa Mia and the menu is Japanese-Italian fusion, I was skeptical, but decided to give them a try. My wife was less so. When we sat down and she perused the menu, she wanted to bolt and go somewhere else. I convinced her to give the benefit of the doubt. After all, if lots of Yelp reviews were positive, it can't be bad, right? We ordered the traditional takoyakis for appetizer, and for mains we had the mentaiko spaghetti, carbonara pasta, salmon & shimeji spaghetti, and salmon shimeji mushroom risotto. To make a long story short, everybody finished their food. My 12 yr old daughter thought her carbonara was the best pasta she ever had. Even my 80+ year old mother, who only likes traditional Asian food, enjoyed her risotto. My wife became a believer too. Somehow the fresh Italian pasta just works with Japanese ingredients. My mentaiko spaghetti was a bit on the creamy side for me, but I still liked it. For desserts we enjoyed the walnut cake(Mont Blanc) and the Kabocha burnt Basque cheesecake. The matcha tiramisu was sold out that day so we couldn't try that. Service was very attentive and friendly. Even though we all enjoyed the food, I am not sure we will be back though, because when we eat out, we usually want a specific type of food, ie. either Japanese or Italian, but not both(fusion), so I think this type of food represents more of a novelty for us, and good for first timers. read more

Lively little restaurant! The place is quite small but lovely! We had the carbonara, the mentaiko pasta, and the spicy arrabiata. The first two were great and worth ordering. I'd likely skip the latter since I thought it was mid. The mentaiko was a unique one for me and I quite like it. The savory and umami flavors from the mentaiko paired well with creamy sauce and the pasta soaked up the delicious sauce. Service was good overall. They're quite new, but I can't complain. I had a great experience here! read more

Parking: Although I live in Milpitas, it was difficult to find. I suggest having a large sign placed for easy viewing. It's next to the old Tapioca store that was recently changed to a chicken restaurant. Ambiance: Super cute and classy. I actually like the setup more than the Santa Clara location. Food: I was disappointed that they didn't have the uni pasta for lunch, especially since that was the whole reason why I wanted to eat here. However, the Salmon Shimeji Mushroom Risotto that I ordered made up for it. It was so rich and creamy, and the seafood taste wasn't overpowering. I give it a 10/10. The matcha latte was a bit too light for my taste, but it wasn't that bad either, I'd give it a 6/10. Service: Amazing! The two ladies were attentive and really nice. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and will definitely be coming back again. read more

La Casa Mia has the cutest interior! The service was great, the workers were very kind and accommodating. My favorite dish would be the mentaiko pasta. It is creamy, has a great texture, and a good mentaiko flavor. The seafood pasta with white wine sauce wasn't anything special to me, I don't really like white wine sauce personally but am glad I gave it a try. The mentaiko mochi pizza was what I was most excited for but it was okay. It's definitely a thin softer pizza, hence it being a mochi like crust, so it was hard to pick it up to eat. The mentaiko flavor wasn't really there, it mostly tasted like cheese with bites of potatoes and hot dog which made it feel like a heavier dish. I wish it was crispier and had more flavor. The serving was huge though. Overall, I am glad I gave this place a try! Would come back for the mentaiko pasta, highly recommend that dish. read more

Yes yes yesss. Firstly, the food was delicious! We had the mentaiko and salmon ikura pasta, both were so yummy - highly recommend the mentaiko. We also ordered the honey mustard chicken. Honestly the best karaage we've ever had. It's chicken thigh to begin with, had the perfect crunch, yummy sauce and served on salad. Drinks were affordable strong. The service was really good from the moment we entered. Our daughter graduated from kindergarten and they brought out our cake with a candle to celebrate her! The ambiance was super cute and pretty.

I came here around 7 pm with some friends on the weekend for dinner. It's a pretty chill and casual place, not super busy. We were greeted by the friendly staff and seated right away! We ordered the truffle fries to share and all of us got the mentaiko pasta. The truffle fries came out very quick which was perfect because I was starving. It came with a sauce that tastes like mayo and honey mustard. It was an ok pairing, I personally think a truffle or garlic aioli would have been better. I liked that the fries looked hand cut and fresh, however it was on the soggier side and I wish the truffle flavor was stronger. The portion size is also small for $9. 4/10. I am not a huge fan of seafoody, fishy flavors but the mentaiko pasta is one of the most popular dishes so I was curious and had to try. The spaghetti was al dente and the sauce was very creamy! My pasta soaked up the sauce beautifully. The flavor of the sauce is obviously seafoody and salty as it is cod roe but it wasn't fishy. 5/10. I wouldn't get it again but this would be perfect for seafood lovers. read more
